GM deserves to drown because of crap like this. Like use your common sense. Is this the type of vehicle you should be producing if your on the brink of being bankrupt? GM is a joke.

Ive driven this truck and found that the gas mileage is actually superb for a V8, getting around 24 miles per gallon at some points. thats in a pickup. taking it offroad is awesome, with the extended frame, it drives very smoothly, before you all go saying how its a piece of crap you should try it first, id rather have one of these than a canyon any day, even if it is more expensive

Wow. Got Handling is a tough guy. I’ve always thought the cool thing about the United States was freedom. Freedom to drive what you want, to believe in your religion, to speak your mind, and play with guns. That said, Beta Mag is making a 100 rnd drum for the M14 now, I say things that get me in trouble, believe in God but don’t attend a church, and am trying to drive and own as many 4×4 trucks I can before I die. If you don’t like Hummer, psst…don’t buy one. Can’t afford it? Get another job or back to school. I figure we humans, as a whole, won’t change our ways until we’ve exhausted fossil fuels. So, I’m going to do my part and buy an H3T and continue to vote Republican. Oh, I forgot, Got Handling…does your mom know your using her computer so late at night. Go to bed, you have school tomorrow. I’m done rambling…

Vini Vidi Vici. My local hang out.
Chefs Table is good, but Vini’s is more casual and a more relaxed crowd.

If you are ever down this way again we could do a beer and I can bore you with my British car industry stories! (Im an expat Brit)

^^Markandrewpowell,

Yup, that would have been us. At Vini Vidi Vici or Chef’s Table?

I guess that Bass Lake and the Sierras in the pictures.
I was out to dinner with my wife in Fresno and all the H3T people came through the bar to a party on the patio.
Saw the H3T badges and looked outside, there was a black H3T (with canoes on the roof rack) parked there briefly.

Really nice looking truck, wonder what incentives will be like?

Howsmydriving, you just called my 65 year old mother a schmuck! Damn you!

But I make fun of her all the time for buying that oversized child’s toy.

I would rather see a Colorado SS with the 5.3 Vortec than another overpriced POS Hummer on the roads.

D.O.A.
Nice looking truck, capable off-road, would have been a sales hit if it arrived same time as 1st H2.
The concept would be a huge success today if it was size of Suzuki Samarai or Sidekick, weight 2700 to 3100 #s. With gas and Diesel 4 bangers and 6-speeds and all the off-road ability.

Hey Gang,

We are all adults here, but do you think we can go without the name calling and profanity? It doesn’t help to push a point further, and ends up exposing the shortcomings of the person making the comment.

This would also apply to the clever screen names.

Thanks

Who gets a medal for this brilliance? Article above mentions 5,000 more fired at GM, but probably not the ass*hole who dreamed this disaster.

Other than the V8, this is a glorified Chevy Colorado. If you’re one of the dozen or so people still desiring this type of vehicle, you could buy an H2 at a fraction of the price.

this is far more functional than the garbage h2. the h3 and h3t are true off-roaders. it’s still definitely a niche vehicle, but at least it serves a purpose.

what a cheap plastic filled interior

melias: thanks for clearing that up, but translated into Canadian it sounded like both brands were cheap bar Scotch. In other words, dead in the water.

Johnnycanuck,

It was referring to the review of Kia’s new Borrego from a couple of weeks ago, that features a big V8 at a time when everyone else is fleeing towards more fuel efficient vehicles.

I should have hot-linked it in the story. But here it is: http://www.leftlanenews.com/kia-borrego-review.html

This dinosaur doesn’t need an asteroid to strike the Earth, it’s dead already.

Mark Elias: I don’t get the Kia reference in your opening paragraph. What am I missing?

It’s a cool truck, but I most likely won’t be getting one.

There’s a very small percentage of the population that genuinely needs a vehicle like a Hummer. The rest of Hummer owners are schmucks.

I don’t understand why this doesn’t have a Cab/bed like the Avalanche or even Subaru Baja.
